Naruto: Starting from the pursuit of Tsunade

Although the return trip was the same distance, it took Nagato and Kakuzu much less time than the trip there.

I boarded the ship from the pier I came from, crossed the Iron Kingdom, and landed at the Waterfall Kingdom.

Because of the trouble caused by Hanzo, the warriors of the Iron Kingdom are not friendly at all to the people of the Rain Kingdom.

Even if your identity may not be recognized, it is better to have less trouble than more.

The people of Taki Country don't have so many concerns, and Taki ninjas rarely walk outside the village.

After getting ashore, Nagato and Kakuzu swaggered across two countries and returned to the Rain Country.

Before entering the village, I saw Yahiko and others waiting at the entrance of the village.

"I thought you guys were reluctant to come back."

Yahiko certainly couldn't say polite words like "welcome back".

He had a teasing smile on his face and did not ask what the tailed beast thought.

“I almost didn’t want to come back.”

"I've gained weight during this time."

Nagato said this while stroking his non-existent belly.

The two of them sang in unison, making everyone laugh.

"If you are fat, lose weight."

"Be careful that Nonoyu dislikes you."

Yahiko joked as Nono stepped forward.

"It's just a few pounds of fat, just cut it off."

Nono made a cutting gesture, cleanly and neatly.

"Then you have to know your limits."

Yahiko had a teasing look in his eyes, and I wonder what scene that was not suitable for children he was thinking of.

"You're really gross."

Xiaonan took a step back in disgust, the Filthy Demon King understood immediately.

"Dogs bark."

Nagato looked at Yahiko speechlessly. This guy was becoming more and more like a teacher.

"If you need anything, you're welcome."

Nono is not someone who can be bullied now, at least he is not afraid in words.

"Cough cough~"

"No, no, I'm fine."

Yahiko almost choked himself. It was really hard to handle when girls acted like hooligans.

"Humph~"

Nono gave Yahiko a look that said 'I can't deal with you, little brat', and he looked very proud.

"Okay, let's go."

Nagato chuckled and naturally took Nono's hand.

No one in the corner said anything, but it was obvious that they were in a good mood.

The smile on his lips never disappeared, and he was completely different from the cold face he had in the Cloud Ninja Village.

As Nagato passed Yahiko, everyone headed towards the Akakage Building.

"Here, the second tail is in here."

Kakuzu reluctantly released the black jar from the scroll.

He would rather this brief possession had never happened.

"Just this jar?"

Xiaonan walked forward and knocked on it curiously, and the black jar made a dull sound.

“Is this thing sturdy?”

Yahiko frowned. This jar couldn’t be said to be exactly the same as the one used for pickling vegetables at his teacher’s home, but it was at least 70% similar.

It’s hard to imagine that this thing can safely seal the tailed beast.

"Of course, this should have been spread from the Land of Whirlpools."

Nono looked knowledgeable and walked forward to take a closer look.

Because she has been learning Tsunade's Yin Seal recently, she has become interested in sealing techniques.

When she was about to touch the black jar with a smile on her face, an accident happened.

The black jar, which had been silent, shook violently a few times, scaring Nono so much that he flew back several meters.

If the office wasn't big enough, she wouldn't know where she was.

When she stood still, the astonishment on her face had not yet disappeared.

At this time, Nagato was already standing in front of her, with the same surprised expression.

"This~"

Nono looked at the jar which had calmed down again in shock, and was extremely frightened.

If she were to be attacked by a tailed beast at such a close distance, her small body would not be able to withstand it.

"Fuck~ What a rubbish thing the Kumogakure gave me."

Nagato swore, which was rare, and turned around to hug Nono.

Yahiko and Konan also retreated several meters, only Kakuzu remained where he was without moving.

"This kind of thing has been in disrepair for a long time, and the sealing power is not strong."

"It's only natural that the movements of the tailed beast inside would affect the container itself."

Kakuzu looked like he was used to it, as he had seen broken jars like this many times in Takigakure before.

It’s just that one of them contains seven tails and the other contains two tails, that’s all.

"You're saying this is normal?"

Nono finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was really scared just now.

At such a close distance, even Nagato might not be able to react.

"Ah."

Kakuzu nodded slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

It was the first time he saw these people panicking at the same time.

"Fuck, that's scary."

Xiaonan patted his chest, which had already grown to a certain size.

If it had moved when I knocked it before, it probably wouldn't be much better than Nono.

"How long will this thing last, in your opinion?"

Yahiko looked at Kakuzu, and at this moment he demonstrated what it meant to have an elder in the family as if he were a treasure.

"Hard to say."

“My opinion is to deal with it as soon as possible.”

Kakuzu shook his head. He really couldn't say for sure, and he didn't know how to strengthen the seal.

"Then take care of it immediately."

Nagato fixed his eyes and made up his mind.

He had kept it in the storage scroll on the way back, and he hadn't expected this to happen.

Now according to Kakuzu, he knew that as long as this black jar was left in the village for one day without being dealt with, everyone would be worried.
